Hi,
I have bought a Beagle Board Rev C.

i want to use Angstrom on it.
So i:

1. Formated the SD Card with two partitions FAT and ext3.
2. Put all boot related files on the first and the Angstrom Filesystem
on the ext3 partition.
3. I have only a LG HDTV and so i set the resolution to:
omapfb.video_mode=1280x720MR-24@60
4. When it starts booting, it shows:

MR means reduced timing.
Your TV probably does not support that.
There are several threads on this on the forum.
For a technical description see the thread Matthieu Poullet posted a
few days ago.

A hack is known but at the moment requires building your own kernel.
Eventually this will be in the std kernel.
